Quick color question? Stripe down middle?

I'm wanting to get the 07' Laser Blue Mini Turbo with the white stripe down the middle instead of one stripe on each side. Is that possible? I saw it done on the earlier models. Thanks!

Anything is possible if you go aftermarket.

Dealers offer what they call "Sports Stripes" which are a pair of classic sports car stripes - not as wide as the very wide stripes that poeple call "viper stripes". I'm getting the sports stripes off center. I think most dealers probably have a relationship with a local that will do any stripe you want. Lots of samples here: http://www.mightystripes.com/Stripes.htm

If you have something different and personal in mind for your stripe job, just email Mr. Mightstripes.com... he can create about anything you're looking for as a one off. I gave him my idea, and he told me he could do it no sweat. Of course, I'm WAITING on the car!

You can contact a local sign shop too. They can do all sorts of neat stuff these days. I once had them make a Taz and put it on the side of the hood of my Mack CH-613. It was about 14" tall and 10" wide. Hope this helps!

I've used Mighty Stripes in the past and plan on using for the next one. Derek will send you samples to help w/your decision. He's a great guy!
